Nice Blog

Art at Jackman shows a great idea for packing tape, this blog has not been updated since may 09 but the idea is good :). Thanks to Heater for the Link to tapesculpture.org. I think I am a fan of tape sculpture now :)arrestedmotion.com tell about a competition for the most most creative use of Scotch brand tape. And while you are looking for images of Tape sculpture take a look at this guy mark jenkins, his work will make you smile.

Curator's Corner, is a good blog for historical reference and art history.

Ted Stanke Blog shows some interesting sculpture/3d projects I have shown one of his pictures here.

The first five pictures show my students at work on their selotape sculptures, It took an afternoon to make the body parts we are still putting them together, I will show the results here. Great fun was had by all.

Product Design and Sculpture

This site has hundreds of product and graphic design examples anything form sunglasses to alarm clocks. A great source for students looking for insperation for design projects and 3d projects. These pictures are just a small range of images that can be found on the site.Creative sunglasses designed by Lee Cooper and high-end eyewear brand Alain Mikli. Milk Carton Vase U.K. designer James Burgess pours a dash of whimsy into white porcelain. Perfect for dunking one, two or three flowers! I love the shoe bike, it may be a good talking point for a design class.
